Segregation from One Another

Summary: Running electricity, mail delivery, telephone and television are all the causes of segregation from one other .For television gives people information, knowledge, news, romance, and advertisements, people needn’t set feet outside their doors like before. However, comparing the family life of modern people with that of their cave-dwelling ancestors, we can know that the development of science and technology may not always be good to us.    I agree with the author completely. The development of science and technology brings people so many advantages and benefits. It makes people’s life more and more convenient. With the help of television and internet, people can know what is happening outside clearly without being out. But it also causes some new problems. People become more and more lonely and the relationship between people is more and more bland. Many people can’t experience the interest of gathering gossip or sharing the laughs and laments of their neighbors. It seems that people can live without connecting with other people. Some people even consider that TV and internet can show you everything you want to know. In fact, what you see on the TV is always not the true condition; most of them have been embellished. Moreover, at a concert, or a ball game, or a political rally, the audience was half the fun. What and whom you saw in the audience was at least as interesting, and often humanly more important, than what you saw on the stage.    Conclusion: Every coin has two sides. On one hand, the development of science and technology brings people many advantages and benefits. It makes people’s life more and more convenient, but on the other hand, it segregates people from one another.
